Guitar anthem concert touring its 10th anniversary, recreating the guitar parts of Clapton, Hendrix, May, Page and more with 35 authentic guitars.
The Story of Guitar Heroes play Salisbury City Hall on Saturday 14 November, as part of a tour marking ten years on the road. It's a guitar anthem concert that works its way through five decades of music, starting with 1950s rock and roll and moving through to the most influential guitar heroes of the modern era.
The set is built around the guitar parts of some of the biggest names in the history of the instrument. They cover Hank Marvin, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Brian May, Jimmy Page, Mark Knopfler, David Gilmour, Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, Van Halen and Slash. That's a wide stretch of ground to cover in one night, from the early rock and roll of Marvin through to the heavy riffs of Iommi and the flash of Van Halen.
What they're known for is technical accuracy. They use no fewer than 35 authentic guitars to recreate the specific sound of each legend they cover, so you're hearing the right gear for the right part rather than one guitar doing the work of eleven. Time Out described it as 'every lick expertly played by highly experienced, gifted musicians'. They bill themselves as the UK's No.1 guitar anthems concert, and this tour is their tenth anniversary.
